Aerobic exercise: Let’s get physical

Stand with feet wider than hip-width apart, knees soft. Keeping hips stable, reach left arm overhead to right and right arm across torso to left (as shown). Then reach right arm overhead to left and left arm across to right. Next, bend forward from hips so torso is parallel to floor; repeat arm reaches. Then fold body completely forward and reach arms to front. Do sequence 20 times.

Technique tip To nix muffin top, feel a deep stretch in your side with each reach.
